^ I missed some of these previous images above! Tonguegirl - amazing image! Seriously! And Dorcy - you never disappoint. Love those!

WhyWontYouListen - Fantastic stuff! and ToLiveandDieinLS - for a first timer, you've certainly got that abstract eye going! Those are awesome! Thank you!

I recently came across a windmill that had ladder access to the top, something I'd never seen before, which was so cool!
When I got to the top, I couldn't resist grabbing an abstract shot of the blade housing. You can actually walk out onto it and past the turning blades to stand on the tip. Very funny!

I've posted these elsewhere on the forums already, but hadn't known of this thread's existence, and I feel these fit here quite well. I know they're not all too specifically "abstract" (certainly not to Rothko levels!), but abstraction is one of those weird, huge, purposefully vague categorizations that we wind up abusing into being whatever we want it to be. Because it's about thought and not really about visuals. So... I tried!

I think my favorite is "Gah-So-Lean," atleast in the pursuit of thinking about things on a deeper level. The subtleties of the colors and composition make me continue to wonder how I was lucky enough to get that shot, too. Loneliness seems to be the direction most of the others suggest, though "Bye-Bye Bus" is more about the "what in the world?" stream of thought. I do have some others that fit the bill, but I'll save them for a later date. Hope you all can find something of mine that achieved the goal to make you think!
